                         --Agiil Traveler's Town--
                                                               宿場町アギール

Ryudo and Elena arrive at Agiil, which until recently was a decent sized,
prosperous town. Now the town is quite different, as you'll see. The town is
located between two major roads, so it is in a prime location for lots of
travelers.

Heading into the 'watchmen's tent', which is actually the weapons/armor store,
you'll find your friendly little Mr. Tutorial Hat, this time with some
mid-level tips (the middle choice when you first talk to him). The first batch
of tips covers special attacks, while the second is regarding magic. If you
choose to do these, it shouldn't be too hard; there are fingers pointing to the
commands that you need to select.

After you're done shopping, you can talk to the guard near the town entrance,
who will reveal that the town was attacked by monsters from the cave within the
town. Of course, they had no chance to defend themselves. After you finish your
chat with him, head to the inn and talk to the innkeeper, who will present you
with four options:
   Offer a greeting to the innkeeper
   Heal
   Quit
   **Save**
Of course, you'll need to choose the top option to continue with the story. It
turns out that he is a old friend of Ryudo's named Pikes. He confirms the story
that you were told earlier; the monsters came from the cave, and are now living
throughout the town. They're trying to get enough people around to fight the
monsters and take back the town. After a quick comment about Elena, you'll see
a small scuffle in the corner. A small boy has had a keepsake from his mother,
a medal, taken away from him by some monsters.

                       ------------------------

Roan    "Isn't there something that we can do about it!?"
Gonzeera "There's no way. Those monsters are just too strong. Your life is
        the important thing."
Rizetto "I'm an idiot, so I don't really understand, but I think what
        Gonzeera is saying is right; it's not worth risking your life."
Paeria (giggle, giggle, giggle) "Life's the most important thing!"
Carupaccho "Yeah, what Paeria says. Life is more important than some
        keepsake."
Roan   "But it's so very important to me... Isn't there _something_ that we
        can do?"
Gonzeera "It's not like we're a band of soldiers or something... If you're
        really that worried about it, why don't you ask that GeoHound guy
        over there."
Roan   "Ex...excuse me. I was attacked by monsters on the way here, and I
        lost something precious... um... I lost a keepsake from my mother...
        and... money really isn't an object... So... please, could you get
        it back for me?"
Ryudo  "Sorry, but right now I'm in the middle of a job, and I can't take on
        two jobs at the same time."
Elena  "I don't really mi..."
Ryudo  "Weren't we supposed to be in a big hurry to get to the main temple?
        Sorry kid, but you're just gonna have to forget about your keepsake."
Roan   "Oh... I see... I... I guess you're right..." (goes and sits in the
        corner)

                       ------------------------

After talking to Roan, Ryudo begins to tell Elena about this town's speciality
- the Kukko nut. Eating a few of them makes you feel rather good, but even
though Ryudo tells Elena not to eat too many, she goes a bit overboard. The
effect? Elena ends up just a tad tipsy, and does a face-first dive into the
bar.

After depositing her in her room, Ryudo realises that this is his chance to
clear out all of the monsters without her to get in the way. Just as he is
getting ready to go, however, he is greeted by Millenia. She tells him that she
has come back as promised, and that this time she's going to finish what she
started (ie. making Ryudo hers), along with threatening to make Skye into fried
chicken if he doesn't shut up. Just as she is about to have her way with Ryudo,
there is a knock at the door. One of the party members that Roan was travelling
with says that he has disappeared, and has probably gone off to find his
keepsake.

Heading downstairs with Millenia, you'll find the rest of the part around the
table talking about Roan. They start to head off to find Roan, but Ryudo says
that since he is going anyway to kill off the monsters that he'll find Roan for
them. Millenia, after a bit of arguement, joins him, and the two go off
together.

                            --Duram Cave--
                                                               デュラムの洞窟

Once you're done arguing with Millenia, you'll be able to head into the
abandoned town. At the center of the town, you'll find the entrance to the
Duram Cave. Head inside, where you'll get a nice overview of the cave.
Immediately after, you'll notice that a few stagtites fall in such a convenient
spot...

Continue into the cave, saving at the save/heal spot if necessary, and you'll
soon see Kyaro, the oh-so-cute mascot of the game. In order to get him to come
near, you'll need to feed him a Poff Nut. Of course, you won't have one yet, so
you'll need to keep an eye out for some. You'll actually not find enough to get
him the first time through (you need three, but the cave only contains two). A
bit deeper into the cave, you'll need to do some typical Grandia things, such
as use a boulder to break open a wall of the cave, but again, it's nothing all
that difficult. You'll also find that you'll need to throw a switch to continue
on in the cave; the switch will raise the water level in part of the cave,
allowing you to cross on the planks of wood that rise after you do so. Once you
have crossed, you'll need to drop a wedge-shaped rock down to the level below
that. Next, head back to the switch and throw it; this allows you to access the
other bridge/wood plank, opening up another section of the cave. After
exploring a bit more, you'll find the entrance to the second level.

Upon getting to the second level of the cave, you'll find Roan being assaulted
by three fish men. Battle them, and you'll get a good deal of experience, gold,
and a new Mana Egg, the Mist Egg, in return. Afterward, you'll talk to Roan a
bit, and he'll convince you that he should join. He explains that he can't go
home yet, that he has to get his mother's keepsake before he can. Millenia
takes quite a liking to Roan, and ends up smothering him in her chest (which
I'm sure that little Roan enjoys quite a bit). After that, Roan joins up,
though Ryudo threatens to leave him behind if he becomes a burden.

Continuing on in the second level, you'll find some more simple puzzles to do.
One requires you to push a block over a button, holding it down. This, along
with stepping the switch right next to it, allows you to get to a switch that
you need to throw to drain the small lake that is blocking your way.

As you go into the third level of the dungeon, you'll want to prepare; there is
a boss coming up in just a bit. You're actually able to walk around the boss,
and see him from behind. There isn't much to actually do behind him, so when
you're ready to, jump on in and attack.

Boss Fight: Duramataurus
This shouldn't prove to be too hard. First, concentrate on group spells so that
you can knock out the two Fishmen that are flanking him. Spells and special
moves are the way to go here - with spells like Millenia's Fallen Heaven Wings
taking off up to 800 HP each, the Duramataurus' 4200 hit points should go down
pretty quickly. Just keep at least one eye on your HP and heal when necessary,
and you should be quite fine. After he is no more, you'll recieve the
Adventurer's Book, a skill book.

After making your way back out of the dungeon, you'll be treated to an odd
sequence. Millenia says that she is a bit tired, and that it has been a long
day. She then says to 'say goodbye to Elena for her', and after saying that,
promptly turns into Elena! As it turns out, the curse that Elena was put under
means that she lives as Millenia during the night, and Elena during the day...

                         --Agiil Traveler's Town--
                                                               宿場町アギール

Back at the Inn at Agiil, the party sits down Elena and tells her what is going
on. Some of the other members in Roan's party come up, and a short discussion
goes on. Roan knows that Ryudo and company are traversing over the Beik Plains,
and asks if he can tag along. Ryudo agrees, and they set off. Before you go,
though, you can visit Mr. Tutorial Hat in the weapon shop for the high level
tutorial (third selection from the top). This one covers Skills,
Counters/Defense/Dodge, and the Treasure Icon. Again, you'll get a couple of
simple fights, but just follow the magic floating hand, and you'll be fine. As
you're passing through the ruins of the old town, you'll find a man who will
give you the third Poff Nut; save it for now - Kyaro acts as a light, so you'll
want to use him when you really need to

                           --Beik Plains--
                                                               ベイク原野

Upon reaching the top of the Beik Plains the "Grana Cliff" comes into view. 
The Grana Cliff is one of this worlds ancient mysteries. Formed during the
"Ancient Magic War of the Gods", this canyon seperates the two main continents
of this planet.  The only problems is that the Main Grana Church Shrine located
in the Saint Heim Holy Land lies on the other side of the canyon.  Fortunately,
you can use the "Aeroport" to cross to the other side.  However, before riding
on the airport the party decides to camp out for the night.

                       ------------------------

Ryudo "Somebody's outside!"
Strange Man "I've finally found you.  Evil, feel my wrath."

(At this point, the strange man attacks.)

Boss Fight: Beast Man
Again, there is nothing particularly hard about this fight. Simply pummel him
with magic/special attacks, watch out for his special attacks (which can rob
you of up to 350 HP), and you should be fine.

Malegg "You are not the man I am seeking."
Ryudo  "Why did you attack us?  We didn't do anything!"
Malegg "Your scent set me off... It was the same as that man... The man who
        destroyed my village.  When I smell that scent... the scent of
        Melphis... I go crazy."
Skye   "Ryudo!"
Ryudo  "Did you say Melphis?  That's impossible!  He should be dea.."
Malegg "Do you know of Melphis? Do you know of the man who commands enough
        destructive magic power to destroy an entire city?"
Ryudo  "I killed him... at least... I thought I did"
Malegg "Well, it looks as though I attacked an innocent person.  For that I
        am sorry.  I have to go now."
Ryudo  "Wait!  Tell me about Melphis!"
Elena  "He left.  But who is Melphis, anyways?"
Ryudo  "He's my brother..."

                       ------------------------

After Malegg runs off, you'll have a chance to explore the rest of the plains,
grabbing the bits of treasure that are there. Once you're done with that, head
off to the area map, and on to the next town.

                        --Rilig Trading Town--
                                                               交易都市リリグ

The Rilig Trading Town is one of the most technologically advanced towns in the
Grandia world.  Home to the "Aeroport the only way to cross the giant canyon
that seperates the two main continents of Grandia, Ryudo and friends arrive at
town hoping to find a quick ride to the other side but instead smacking
head-first into another mystery.  For some strange reason all of the
townspeople say that they are "stuck" eating the awful tasting "stink-potato". 
Upon digging deeper into the mystery, you find out that the reason the
townspeople continue to eat the stink-potato is that it seems they have lost
their ability to taste other foods.  Therefore the only option is to continue
eating the dreaded stink-potato.  Some would rather stave than eat so all
around town people are passing out from hunger left and right.  You soon learn
that if people leave the town their taste buds will eventually heal and they
can taste again.  However, the money that most people are making in Rilig far
outweighs their desire to "taste" foods and so they continue to stay.  Next the
party proceeds to the manager of the town, Gadan's house.  Almost pig-like in
manner, Gadan is gobbling down on some food when you arrive.  For some strange
reason, even though others can eat a single bite Gadan says he really can't
stop eating.  He even suggests that Elena looks mighty tasty and that he
wouldn't mind trying a bite or two.  Elena, although repulsed by the pigman,
asks why no one eats anything besides stink-potatoes.  Gadan explains that
while a long time ago this town was known as the "Town blessed by Granas", it
must have lost Granas's blessing since it is now cursed.  Gadan says that the
party can use the aeroport to get to the other side of the canyon for the low
price of 10000 gold.  However, the aeroport is closed for the day and so since
they have to wait until tomorrow anyways they should talk to the Granas
preacher at the edge of the town.  The crew go to the church and make their
introductions to the preacher.  After a while he takes them upstairs to show
them why the town is known as the "Town blessed by Granas".  The 2nd floor of
the Granas church looks out over the whole town.  However the main thing that
catches the eye are the large stone pillars sticking out of the ground.  The
preacher explains that these are ancient ruins from the "Ancient Magic War of
the Gods".  Elena asks if anyone has ever tried to dig down and see what is
inside them.  Appearantly, one of the towns has been moving slightly from it's
place in the grounds so their has been a mining expedition to see if they could
uncover what was going on but no one has found anything so far.  Suddenly, an
idea occurs to Ryudo--the shape of the ancient pillar in town is the same shape
of Galumia tower.  It must be that another part of Valmar's body is trying to
escape from its confinement just like how Valmar's wing escaped from Galumia. 
The party guesses that the tower is the key to the towns problems and so they
must explore the ruins and see who or what is behind this. After exiting the
town they bump into an old friend - Malegg.  Malegg says that he smells evil
like before.  Ryudo guesses that it might be that Melphis is behind all of
this.  Perhaps Melphis could be inside the ruins right now as they speak. 
Malegg, devoted to destroying all evil, joins the party and they head for the
entrance to the ruins.  The entrance to the ruins is a grey covered hatch
inbetween Gadan's House and townperson #2's house. Head in there, and prepare
yourself for the next dungeon.

                        --Rilig Underground Cave--
                                                               リリグ地下洞穴

Heading into the cave, you'll find some twisting and turning corridors. You can
light torches along the way so that you can keep track of where you've been.
After a bit of exploration, you'll come across a platform with green, red, and
blue stones on top of pillars. The trick here is to activate the pillars in the
correct order, as stated by the sign that is there. It reads: "If you want to
open the door, you should open it in the order: red, blue, green." Getting to
them should be simple enough; just make sure that you hit them in the right
order.

After activating the pillars in the right order, head back to the initial
platform where you found the pillars, and activate the middle pillar, which
will cause some huge metal doors in front of you to open. Heading inside,
you'll find a large beast, who will promptly eat Elena! She emerges as
Millenia, and the beast begins to talk to you. It turns out that this is
actually Gadam, the piggish character that you met earlier. He has been
possessed by Valmar's tongue. He crashes through a wall and into the next room.
Before following him, take a look around; you'll be able to grab some treasure,
including two items for Millenia. After you've done so, head into the next
room, where you'll get to face Valma's Tongue, one on one (or, one on four,
more precisely).

Boss Fight: Valmar's Tongue
Though Valmar's Tongue is large, has four parts, and has a extremely high
amount of HP, he shouldn't prove to be that hard if you've been spending your
SC and MC wisely. Just pummel him with special attacks and magic (fire spells
should work the best here) and watch your HP. Concentrate on the main body,
though taking out his extreneous parts will help as well.

Once the fight is over, you'll find your party back in Gadan's house. It is
confirmed that Valmar had exploited his weakness, his love of food, and had
possessed him. That, of course, was why the town was in turmoil. A combination
of Gadan's love of food, and the townspeople's love of money proved to be the
undoing of the town.

After talking a bit and doing a bit of exploration of the town, they head to
the Aeroport to head across the great gash. The journey goes all right until
suddenly, something begins to go awry...

                         --Rumial's Forest--
                                                               ルミルの森

(as the cords break)
Elena  "The darkness is coming. The darkness is coming. The darkness is...
        it's calling me..."
Ryudo  "Elena!"
Ryudo (as they tumble down) "Shit!

(the party wakes up, and wonders where Elena is)

(as Elena is lying on the ground)
Voice  "Elena. Elena! Wake up!"
Elena  "Who... who are you? Where are you?"
Voice  "Well... where is really kind of hard to say. Over to your left there
        is a big mirror. Go over to it."
Elena (goes to the mirror and looks in it)
Millenia (appearing in the mirror) "Hello. My name is Millenia. Nice to meet
        you."
Elena  "You're Millenia?! You're Valmar's Wing!"
Milln. "Bingo."
Elena  "You're dirty! You... you suck away people's souls!"
Milln. "Now, now... Is that any way to treat someone who saved your life?"
Elena  "You saved my life? What?"
Milln. "That's right. So you should really thank me, because I'm part of
        you, and you're part of me. We'll always be together.. wherever we
        go... forever and ever. Well, I've got to go! See you later!"
Elena  "Millenia! Millenia! Wait!"
Milln. (disappears)

                       ------------------------

It is revealed that whenever Valmar's moon shines red, it is signalling that
Valmar's resurrection is close. Beside that point, it turns out that they have
landed north of their intended destination, so they set out to the St. Heim's
Holy Land.

You'll now need to navigate through the forest, and the connected areas. The
hard part about this section is the fact that there are occasionally small
doors hidden in the sides of the corridors. In order to find these, you'll just
need to rotate the camera a bit more than normal. Most of these somply lead to
treasure, so you shouldn't be missing all that much if you can't find a few.
Past that, there shouldn't be anything all that hard if you just do a bit of
exploring.

After traversing through a few areas, you'll come to a strange place called the
"Dream Flower Garden". There is a young girl there who says that it was her
secret place, and to truly appreciate it your heart must be pure. The little
girl thinks that Elena might be able to see it, but that she should ask the
'black winged girl inside her about it'. Then she tells Elena not to 'eat her'
and when Elena asks what she means she says not to tell anyone about the dream
flower garden, the girl leaves. Explore a bit, and eventually, you'll be put
back out into the snowy woods, wondering if it was a dream or not.

A bit more adventuring will put you out on the area map once more, where you
can continue on to the next area.

                           --Mirum Town--
                                                               ミルムの村

Upon reaching the town, Elena remarks that the town looks rather sad. Two boys
overhear her, and fetch the town's chief. He sees that Elena is a priestess and
is elated that they have come to save the town. Ryudo explains that they aren't
there to save the town, and the chief is a bit disappointed, though tells him
to come to his house so that he can explain more...

The chief says that people have been randomly falling asleep as they walk
around. At this point, the people have been asleep for five days, and they
can't be roused. The chief thinks that it might be some sort of curse, but
can't say for sure. He says that everyone in the town has been having the same
dream, and that they are all fairly scared. They want the party to stay there
for just one night, so that the town can be calm until the priestess from the
main temple arrives the next day.

After going to the inn, the innkeeper's mother asks Elena to look at her poor
son Nikol.  Nikol has appearantly been sleeping for 5 days.  However, upon
examining Nikol it looks as if he is peacefully sleeping.  Every now and then
Nikol talks in his sleep about a 'beautiful guarden full of flowers and
fairies'.  The adventurers then tell about their run in with a little girl in
the mountains.  After describing how the girl appeared in a flower field full
of flowers and fairies the Nikol's mother begins to get suspicious. When the
she hears that the little girl had a scar over her right eye and that even
though her eye was bad she could still see extremely well, the Nikol's mother
realizes that the girl that Ryudo and friends saw was probably the daughter of
Sandra.  Sandra is the town witch and Nikol's mother says that Sandra's
daughter Ira should be blind but she since her eyes are getting better is
probably the work of a curse that Sandra cast against the town people.  One
where the more townspeople fall in the sleeping sickness, the more Ira's eyes
will heal. Of course, the next place that you'll need to go is Sandra's house,
just over the bridge in town...

Upon arriving at Sandra's house, you'll find Ira playing outside. At first, the
party questions Ira about whether the flower guarden was a dream or not. Of
course, she says that it wasn't. Strangely, next she asks Elena not to eat her.
Elena asks what she means by that, and she says that it means just that - not
to eat her. At that point, Sandra comes out of the house and starts to yell at
Ryudo and company to get away from Ira. After explaining that they aren't there
to hurt her, Sandra calms down and asks them inside.

Inside, Sandra will begin to explain about why she overreacted when she saw the
party. Everyone is blaming Ira for the curse that has fallen over the town.
Sandra only wants the best for Ira, only wants her to see once more. As the
party gets up to leave, Ira begins yelling about the scary people that have
just arrived. She can't explain more than that, but just keeps saying that they
are scary. Without her saying more, the party can't really do anything but go
outside and see what is going on.

                       ------------------------

Elena  "Wh, who...? Oh wow, those are the holy knights..."
Selena "Oh, my, that's really terrible... But don't worry. I have cleansed
        many a town in the past, and have lots of experience in these sorts
        of matters. Have no fear, I'll soon be able to purify this town as
        well. "
Chief  "That's very reassuring."
Selena "But this is the work of Valmar. This town has fallen under his
        curse, and it shall be no easy task..."
Chief  "Is it really that bad?"
Selena "I am here from the Granas Main Shrine. I have come to purify all of
        the evil and all of those who stand against me! No evil can hide
        from me! I will not stop until I have cleansed everyone of this
        evil!"
Selena (pauses, turning) "Holy Knights! Unsheath your holy swords and guard
        the gates. Let no one out!"
Selena (turns once more) "By the way... My name is Selena, head of the Holy
        Knights and Grand Priestess of Granas."
Ryudo  "Hey Elena. Do you know who that person that is pretending to be a
        god is?"
Elena  "Yes, she is the priestess Selena. She is the head of the Royal
        Knights. She's very strong, and she's also the head of the Grand
        Inquisition. This town could be in for some deep trouble..."
Ryudo  "Really? Is that all she is? She doesn't seem to big to me..."

(the party approaches Selena)

Selena "Hey. You're a Granas Priestess aren't you? I heard that there was no
        priestess in this town."
Elena  "No, i'm just a singing priestess. I've simply come to deliver a
        message to Pope Zera."
Selena "You plan to talk to Pope Zera? It will no doubt be news that will
        make him happy, I'm sure. But since you're here anyway, why don't we
        work together to cleanse this place of its foul evilness."
Elena  "Um... OK. Thank you very much."

                       ------------------------

Once the dialogue is over, you'll find that the Royal Knights have strengthened
their guard, and will no longer let you leave the town. Approach Selena once
more, and speak with her. She'll say that she simply isn't able to let them
leave, even though she wants them to go about their job. She goes on to gloat
that she has recieved the blessings of the god Granas, and that she _will_ find
those who have been possessed. Of course, Roan spots her for what she really
is; she intends not to 'purify' the town, but to kill those who are possessed.
Roan has heard that when the Holy Knights come to a town, it is quickly reduced
to a pile of burning rubble. She clarifies: they do not kill people, but
instead they cleanse them with holy burning fire. Ryudo yells at her, not
understanding the difference between that and killing. She goes on to say that
if they don't find the impure aspects of the town, they will simply have to set
the entire town aflame with holy fire. She says that those who are without sin
do not need to worry about the fire. The chief isn't thrilled about the aspect
of his entire town being set on fire. Selena says not to worry, and they go off
to start to find the causes of the curse.

Ryudo sees that the gate is fairly securely guarded, and suggests that they
spend the night in the inn. Head in, and select the top option to sit down for
a meal... As they eat, they discuss the situation, and the fact that so many
innocent people are at risk. The figure that there isn't a lot that they can do
except for wait...

After dinner, Ryudo approaches Elena, who is staring out at the moons. Ryudo
tries to make Elena feel better, tries to cheer her up. Elena has finally lost
part of what kept her cheerful. Ryudo finally says that if she can't stay
positive about things then he should just slice her open right there and then.
Elena drops to the floor, saying that he is right, and that he should just kill
her... Ryudo was only saying it to try to shock some sense into her, though,
and tells her that they just need to concentrate on getting to the main Granas
temple, and that they will just go from there. He tells her to get some sleep,
and does the same.

While sleeping, Ryudo has a strange dream. He doesn't want his heart to be
looked into during it, and just wants to forget... He wakes up saying these
words... After a short conversation with Skye, he thinks that this dream might
have been that everyone is having. He gets up and goes to the window, where he
sees what he believes to be the source of the problems. The rest of the party
shows up, and he fills them in on the fact that the source of the problems is a
huge eyeball. They all join up, and go to see if the Ilenia, the mother of the
innkeeper Nikol, is all right. As they enter the room, you'll see the floating
eyeball, confirming that it is the source of the problems. They decide to
follow the eyes, and head outside. Of course, the eyes head into a cave at the
edge of town, and the party has no choice but to follow. Before doing so, you
might want to take advantage of the save/heal point that is nearby; afterward,
head behind Sandra's house and enter the cave.

                   --The Dubious Hole in the Mountain--
                                                        怪しき裂け目 地下道

Entering the cave, you'll find a nicely easy dungeon to explore, for a nice
change. With only one level and just a handful of items to find, it will be no
time at all until you find another sealed part of Valmar: his Eyes. Of course,
you'll need to prepare for a battle...

Boss Fight: Eyeball Bats
Like all of the bosses to this point in Grandia II, the Eyeball Bats are
nothing incredibly hard, especially if you've been keeping up on magic and
special moves. Try to concentrate on single bats, taking them out one at a
time. Moves like Hellburner (found in the Chaos Magic Egg, the highest level
Flame magic) are great, as they attack a range and do upwards of 1000 damage,
which is a full third of what the Eyeball Bats have. Of course, keep an eye on
your life level and don't be afraid to take a round out to heal. Overall, you
shouldn't have much of a hard time at all, and before you know it they'll be
dead, and you'll have recieved the Warrior's Book.

After you've defeated the eyes, Ryudo notices that they didn't feel as strong
as the enemy that possessed Gadam, and that there must be a more powerful enemy
out there somewhere. Getting back to town, they find out that many more people
were attacked and have fallen asleep throughout the night. At that point, a
townsperson tells them that Selena wants them to meet at the community center.
Going there, you'll find that the amount of victims have actually doubled, and
Ryudo informs Selena that she should be looking for flying eyeballs. Selena
says that they are just the minions, and that she wants to continue looking for
the real threat, and leaves. The party decides to explore the Dubious Hole in
the Mountain again, but before they get there, Ira shows up and says that she
wants them to come and play with her in a happy place where there are no
painful memories or thoughts. The party, curious, follows her into the shed
behind her house (Ed. Note: I _knew_ that there was something in that damn
shed... -Ben). As you enter the shed, Ira talks about how hard her mother
worked every day to buy her medicine, and how much she appreciates it. She'll
then drop down a hole in the shed floor, and you'll find yourself in another
familiar place...
